We’re welcoming back the very first guest of the podcast…Bailey Smith! Since we last spoke with Bailey about her time living overseas in Europe for 2 years, she has been settling back in to her life in Oregon and most recently founded her own travel planning service called Indie Travel Design. Not only does she help people plan their getaways, honeymoons, baby moons, and more, but she also is very passionate about working with nonprofits and other organizations to ensure their mission trips go off without a hitch.
Bailey lives and breathes travel, so I wanted to get her take on the effects the pandemic has had on the industry, and what travel may look like in the future. Keep in mind, no one can know exactly how things will change, but she’s dug up some interesting trends and facts that could give us an idea of what’s to come. We’re going to cover passenger precautions, the potential of a new health enforcement agency, travel restrictions, and the overall economic impact.

From the time you begin college, start your career and perhaps start a family, to the time you leave the workforce and retire, investing in yourself is important and can impact your quality of life when you're older. With so much on the line, how do you make sure the decisions you're making are the right ones? We’re talking to Mark Willis, Certified Financial Planner (CFP), about how to navigate the major wealth transfers of our lives. Mark lays out the 4 major problems with our current system, and offers some solutions that may be a better way of capitalizing on our hard earned money. Along with helping clients plan for the future, Mark also co-hosts a weekly podcast called “Not your Average Financial Podcast.”
We will be covering the important money milestones or "wealth transfers" throughout our lives, including the repayment of student loans, planning for our children's college, and saving for retirement.
